Dr. Seuss on the Loose
My favourite in this collection is 'Just waiting ...' from 'Oh, The Places You'll Go!' and it is one of the books that I have not read. There's people and creatures everywhere doing a variety of bizarre things and the verse begins, 'Waiting for a train to go/or a bus to come, or a plane to go/or the mail to come, or the rain to go/or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow/or waiting around for a Yes or No/or waiting for their hair to grow ...'. The overriding factor is that 'Everyone is just waiting' and Dr Seuss presents a fantastic double page panorama to represent the action, or more particularly the inaction.
There are extracts from 'The Cat in the Hat', not surprisingly, 'Green Eggs and Ham', 'How the Crinch Stole Christmas' and others, all in the traditional and expected style of the marvellous Dr. Seuss. And it all ends with two appropriate pieces - 'Time for Bed' from 'Dr Seuss' Sleep Book' (not read by me) that features one of Dr. Seuss' zany creatures, the Biffer-Baum Birds who are building their nests, something that they do each night and it is their problem 'Not yours. And not mine.' The point is they are going to bed. And then 'Good Night' from 'One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish' (also not read by me) in which another of his creatures the pet Zeep appears and we learn 'Today is gone. Today was fun./Tomorrow is another one.' And so it is, let's hope it's fun once more … and so good night!
Full of rhymes to explore with your children either at the start or end of day, or just to even have around the classroom for them to read. There is a rhyme about bedtime: 'Time for bed.'A rhyme about 'taking time out' and even a rhyme about being small: 'A Person's a person. No matter how small.'
Very good illustrations. Will read to my future classroom! So detailed.
This book is just a collection of stanzas from Seusss very famous books. And while the stanzas are fun, they lose most of their meaning when not presented with the entire story.
My favorite!
Theodor Seuss Geisel was born 2 March 1904 in Springfield, MA. He graduated Dartmouth College in 1925, and proceeded on to Oxford University with the intent of acquiring a doctorate in literature. At Oxford he met Helen Palmer, who he wed in 1927. He returned from Europe in 1927, and began working for a magazine called Judge, the leading humor magazine in America at the time, submitting bothI'd miss all the stories soon...

Explanation Supposing Books Dr. Seuss on the Loose
'Dr Seuss on the Loose!' is a collection of pieces from Dr. Seuss' vast output so the probability is that if you are a Dr. Seuss fan you may well have read some of them previously. But Dr. Seuss is so addictive that it matters not, they can be read and enjoyed once more in a different setting.My favourite in this collection is 'Just waiting ...' from 'Oh, The Places You'll Go!' and it is one of the books that I have not read. There's people and creatures everywhere doing a variety of bizarre things and the verse begins, 'Waiting for a train to go/or a bus to come, or a plane to go/or the mail to come, or the rain to go/or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow/or waiting around for a Yes or No/or waiting for their hair to grow ...'.
